Busy Bees Lichfield
from D D (Mother of Child) published on 12 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our son initially struggled to settle in, but the staff at Busy Bees were absolutely amazing. They were so supportive, patient, and understanding with both him and us as parents - nothing was ever too much trouble. They took the time to get to know him, helping him feel comfortable and happy.
We can

see how much he's grown in confidence thanks to the caring and dedicated team. We're so grateful for all their kindness and support - we couldn't have asked for a better start for him

Busy Bees Lichfield
from Emily R (Mother of Child) published on 8 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

All the staff at Busy Bees have been fantastic with our son since he started here at the beginning of June.
His settling in sessions were well structured, all the team show genuine warmth & care for all the children in the rooms. In particular, his key worker was fantastic at ensuring he felt supported

during his first few weeks. The activities they organise are engaging & interactive, plus the menu is healthy & balanced.
The app is great so we have full visibility of his day, including food & sleep, plus it's lovely receiving photos of him smiling and enjoying himself when he's there.
I'd absolutely recommend Busy Bees to both friends/family and prospective parents.

from Jo M (Mother of Child) published on 24 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I am so pleased with Busy Bees Lichfield and their care for my son, he has been there since he was 9 months old and I've always felt relaxed leaving him every day knowing he is so happy and loves the environment. The staff are all so lovely and friendly and genuinely care for him and his development.

It's so clean and tidy and the food menu is always something amazing! His social skills and speech have developed so quickly particularly since he's recently moved into the rising twos room.

Review of
Busy Bees Lichfield
from Andrea R (Mother of Child) published on 24 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I've been really impressed with the Busy Bees Lichfield team who worked with my daughter to settle in. Every day they clearly made an effort to help her feel more comfortable. They had calls with me to talk about what she likes, suggested things we could do to ease the transition, prepared foods that

made her feel at home, and were always so friendly with all the staff greeting her by name on our way in and out each day. Now that she has settled in, the staff continue to work on her development, including crawling/standing skills, verbalisation, fine motor skills, and even on reducing her dummy use. They know what activities she likes, and it's very clear to me how much fun she is having at nursery now.
The following makes Busy Bees LF stand out to me: naptimes are child-led and there is not pressure for her to conform to group naptimes, the individualised approach to settling in, and collaboration with parents. I also appreciate that app updates come throughout the day vs at the end.

Overall Experience

My daughter came to this nursery following the closure of one of the branches. Since starting in June 2024 she absolutely blossomed after a few weeks. The staff are absolutely amazing and go above and beyond for the children and for the parents. I would highly recommend this setting for any child.

Busy Bees Lichfield
from Emma B (Mother of Child) published on 15 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My son transferred to Busy Bees Lichfield from another Busy Bees setting nearly 12 months ago. The staff were extremely supportive in helping my son through this transition period. They took the time to get to know him, his likes and his interests and he has settled so well. I'm beyond pleased!
Since

joining, I've noticed a great development in his language skills and the words he chooses to use - in particular his adjectives. He has also developed a greater understanding of the world, understanding why we do certain things or why certain things happen. Often now asking the question "why?" and becoming more and more curious each day. The staff are excellent!
We love the inside-outside flow of the room as he loves being outside on bikes, looking for insects and running around.
We're so delighted with his transition, and our youngest is due to start in the next few weeks. We are excited for his journey and would have no hesitation recommending Busy Bees Lichfield to other parents.

Busy Bees Burton
from Matthew B (Father of Child) published on 24 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

This is our third child to go to Busy Bees Burton. Even though we now live further away, we still feel the journey is worth it. All our children have thrived at this nursery, many of the staff have been there for over a decade, which speaks volumes about the environment they create. The staff at the

nursery truly care about providing the best possible environment for a child's growth and development. The communication is always excellent and we would not hesitate in recommending Busy Bees Burton to anyone looking for a great nursery for their little one, they are easily the best in this area.

Overall Experience

Our child is autistic and has attended since he was 10 months old (nearly 3 years). We have found the SENCO to be incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, who has guided us through new and difficult systems. The nursery has hosted training which we have been included in (it's been invaluable). The preschool

team in particular have also been understanding and accommodating. Really love this nursery and the team.

Review of
Busy Bees St Matthews
from Amie B (Mother of Child) published on 27 February 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Busy Bees St Matthews has been nothing short of amazing.
The transition from being on maternity to going back to work and leaving my daughter in their hands has been so easy and I feel so comfortable leaving her with them.
The room manager when my daughter first joined the nursery was incredible,

she took my daughter under her wing and nothing was ever too much trouble for her. She has since gone on adoption leave herself but every other person who has looked after my daughter has been amazing. I really can not fault anything about this nursery. I can't wait to see my baby grow up within the care of this nursery.

Overall Experience

My little boy has been here since 6 months old and I cannot fault the care he receives. He is now 2 and a half years old and loves going to nursery to see his teachers. They are always so aware of his interests and his development and have really supported us in his potty training. I would recommend

this nursery to anyone wanting outstanding childcare.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Busy Bees Burton nursery for around 2 years now. They have been amazing with her, really making me feel at ease. They provide constant updates throughout the day regarding her meals and nappy changes, as well as any photos. My daughter has created such special bonds with the

staff members, I couldn't recommend them enough! Her development and confidence has come on huge amounts since attending Busy Bees.

from Jessica S (Mother of Child) published on 18 February 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My 20-month-old daughter loves attending Busy Bees Burton! The staff in the first steps room are nothing short of amazing with her. They are nurturing, caring and always show genuine interest in my daughter's development and interests. I believe with this level of care shown by the staff in first steps,

my daughter has thrived and her development and confidence has come on leaps and bounds.
The management team have also been great! As a first-time mum, it was always going to be an anxious time sending my little one to nursery but the care and reassurance I received from them was amazing! Any questions I have, they are always on hand and willing to answer them, and do so with confidence, their passion for the nursery really shines through!

Overall Experience

My daughter recently started Busy Bees and from the start was a very warm welcome from all staff. My daughter has settled in lovely and I already feel that all her needs will be supported. It's lovely to see her pictures on the app and to hear what she's been doing during the day. I feel so relaxed

knowing she's in safe hands, would recommend Busy Bees without a doubt to all parents. I can only thank all the staff for all their hard work.

from Elliott R (Father of Child) published on 5 February 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Kind and caring staff towards our son. They all take an interest in how he is getting on and developing. Our son enjoys coming in and playing with his friends. Good activities to keep them occupied with plenty of drawings and paintings coming home on the evenings. Only negative is the car park. The

car park needs lines painting for the bays along with trimming the bushes back so cars aren't parked against the bush.

Overall Experience

A lovely setting, with lots of new and exciting opportunities to explore. The staff have always been very helpful during my daughters time with them. My daughters room lead/key worker is amazing and I could not fault the care she offers my daughter. Alongside other staff within the room, they have always

been amazing and want the best for the children. As my daughter suffers with medical needs/conditions, the staff have always been on board and willing to work alongside me to make things better, with lots of reassurance. She enjoys her time within the nursery and is always happy to come the next day!
